is it a graphics problem? you dont see any cars? or is it a problem that your city doesnt use cars to move. if it is the latter and there is no abandonment than you have done a great job building your mass transit network

i find it best (but super expensive) to lay subway lines under every road and put roadtop stations every block. it can cause commercial demand to be stifled due to the lack of road traffic though

Great Job! this is an awesome city!!!

Man... I'm a lightweight. Only 111 MBs right now... used to be over 5 but i got sick of long load times and scrollin thru the landmarks for an hour.

Wow great to see that this project is still going strong. I thought all hope was lost for Mars, but it's a good thing i was wrong!

The custom school is probably buggy. just remove it then see what happens with regular schools.

I've had this problem but it is completely over commute time... they are literally around 15-20 tiles from my downtown, and subways flood the streets... Do R$$$ only use monorail or cars to commute??

Yeah 15 meters and your heights are all different when i look at that screen shot. Plop one by one sections of street over the whole sunken highway digout thing before you put down the highway. that flattens it out. there should be a thread on here somewhere that gives a better description if you don't understand...

The El-rail facelift mod is on the LEX. It's one of my favorites. no more grass in mega cities...

No underground powerlines, but keep in mind that all buildings transport power 2 spaces. So just plop open grass spaces down every 2 spaces and you have a simulated underground power line.

1. There isn't anything i would classify as "Required" but terrain mods are nice if you are into the aesthetics. Also road top mass transit is pretty useful for space-saving. Deadwoods has one on the STEX. 3. I think the SC4 Terraformer is what you are looking for, i dont think it can randomly generate regions, but you can alter the region as a whole. That is on the STEX too. Then there are always tons of maps you can download too. I'm not so sure about commute times, but the NAM has some features that alter it. You can choose to increase speed and capacity during the install. THere are probably a ton of threads about it on the forums though

Yeah San Francisco probably does make the most sense... But Downtown Disney is pretty shiny at night... I can't choose right now!!!

There isn't a scale... How big is the downtown?

This is a pretty amazing City Journal you got here.

wait... is that your video? Can we get a screenshot from your city?

Was the region you downloaded a sc4 terraformer file? if so then you will need to download that too.

i find that making sprawl is boring and time-consuming.. but i do it anyway and i like the end result. Sprawl-it's just too alike for my taste

the 4 tiles thing is horrific... i once had a city with huge abandonment around the landfills.... it kept me from developing into skyscraper status for a century....
